( Went to see The Musical of Musicals the musical! (try saying that ten times really fast) tonight. )
So after the horrors of what was supposed to be my first lesson on the 31st, the driving teacher and I finally met this afternoon for my first offical driving lesson. Now, dad's taken me out a couple times before - first to Delancey street under the bridge, then to a high school parking lot in New Rochel, and most recently to the edge of Long Island City. None of these places compare to driving in the city. Cabs coming at you - always in your blind spot - trucks stalling in front of you, ambulences with sirens on coming up behind you, pedestrians who are really fucking stupid when making jay-walking decisions - the list of obsticles and potential fatalities never ends. The problem is that when you're with an instructor, you can't side-swipe and run because the instructor is in the car and has a cell phone. Sad. Driving in New York City. Fun.
Tomorrow we're going up to Pittsfield for the weekend. Should prove to be much fun and relaxation - jet skiing will be involved 8D So, if you can't catch me online for the next few days, that's why. I'm not here.
